TUE King came to town at the usual hour on Wednesday, to bold his Levee. Soon after his arrival, he received the address from Cambridge University ; which was presented by Marquis Camden, accompanied by the Duke of Northumberland, Sir F. Pollock, the Duke of Gordon, Lord Delawarr, Lord Clive, Viscount Canterbury, Mr. Goulburn, the Bishops of Exeter and London. His Majesty returned what the Court chronicler as usual terms a " gracious " reply to the Address.
The general company at the Levee was not numerous. Lord Gardner kissed hands as a Lord of the Bedchamber, Mr. Labouchere as Master of the Mint, Sir George Grey as Under Colonial Secretary, and Mr. Francis Baring as Secretary to the Treasury. The King, accompanied by Sir Herbert Taylor, left town in the evening, and returned to Windsor Castle.
The Dutchess of Kent gave her first grand party for the season on Monday evening, at Kensington Palace. The company was numerous and splendid ; and on looking over the names, we find persons of various political opinions.

The Dutchess of Cambridge, Prince George, and the Princess Augusta, attended the performance of Otello at the King's Theatre on Thursday.
